Y'all remember the last time I tried to upgrade Fused Zamasu? Yeah, those were fun times, weren't they?
However, this time, I think I'm actually making more sense. See, I've come to realize something and it's led to me asking this question: Why do we assume Infinite Zamasu is stronger than Fused Zamasu? The answer seems obvious at first, right? "Infinite Zamasu has a Low 2-C feat, Fused Zamasu doesn't, it's as shrimple as that." However, are there any statements indicating that Infinite Zamasu is actually a being stronger than Fused Zamasu? Especially given Dragon Ball is a verse where characters love to say when [X] character got stronger than before (via their ki rising), and yet Infinite Zamasu is given no such statement. All we get is surprise at the fact that Zamasu is becoming the universe... which is range, not AP (and Fused Zamasu already has universal AP to begin with so it's kind of a moot point).
In addition, let's take a look at Infinite Zamasu's few AP and durability feats. His few feats come from this video, for reference. He's unaffected by a combined attack from a tired Base Goku, Base Vegeta, and Super Saiyan (Rage? DBS animation go brr. I think it's Rage) Trunks. And I can't lie... This is a pretty nothing durability feat. I mean for starters, Zamasu still has his immortality, but also, this is nothing we're not used to from Fused Zamasu. He took a Father-Son Galick Gun from Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta and Super Saiyan Rage Trunks who had much more stamina left than before, and was only angered by it rather than actually hurt. Now, going from durability to AP, it doesn't get much better. From the first video I sent, it can be seen that Trunks, Goku, and Vegeta are hit by an energy blast from Infinite Zamasu, but we later see that, despite Goku and Vegeta being in their base forms, they're still able to get up after being hit by it. Not only that, but Shin is able to block a blast from Infinite Zamasu with his barrier. Now, let's compare this to Fused Zamasu. As shown by the Father-Son Galick Gun video, his Lightning of Absolution knocked Vegeta out of Super Saiyan Blue and left him unable to move for a bit, and later - at the end of this video - he one-shots a nearly fully healed Base Goku and Vegeta (I'm not sure if the damage on Vegito carries over to both of them, I'll assume it does, hence why I said "nearly" since Vegito took a few hits from Zamasu but was otherwise fine) and they can hardly move until after Trunks defeats Zamasu. So overall, I'd say there really aren't any feats on Infinite Zamasu's end that would indicate him being stronger than Fused Zamasu.
Edit: It's also been brought to my attention that Goku believed he could at least manage something if he had a spare Senzu Bean, which also helps in proving that Infinite Zamasu isn't stronger than Fused Zamasu, given that Goku did manage something against the latter when using everything he had.
Lastly, I'd like to touch on some miscellaneous things regarding what Infinite Zamasu really is and why it wouldn't make sense for him to be any stronger than Fused Zamasu. Based on the scans on his profile, it's pretty simple to gather what Infinite Zamasu is. He is simply the will of Fused Zamasu, released from the confines of his vessel and thus running out of control. It's also stated that his thoughts flew into the sky. So really, this is just the existing will of Fused Zamasu, but spreading throughout the entire universe rather than remaining in his body due to said body being cut down. This doesn't suggest a growth in strength after all, as this same will still exists within Fused Zamasu, just contained in his vessel.
In a sense, you could consider this a simple case of Attack Potency =/= Destructive Capacity.
That Low 2-C will go crazy.
So, I propose that Fused Zamasu be scaled to Low 2-C via being as strong as Infinite Zamasu, as nothing within Dragon Ball Super indicates that the latter is actually stronger than the former. The only reason it's been treated that way is because the latter is the one that performed the Low 2-C feat, yet that ignores the fact that none of Infinite Zamasu's feats against Goku, Vegeta, and Trunks actually place him above Fused Zamasu.
This will affect a lot of scaling. A number of 3-A characters will become Low 2-C from this if it gets accepted (honestly the progression from 3-A to Low 2-C to 2-C is amazing to me but I digress), though I'm not too sure on the specifics. Like, I believe Goku, Vegeta, and Trunks will scale in some capacity given their attacks could eventually overwhelm Zamasu's and they could fend off some of his casual attacks as well, though I'm not too sure on that. In addition, this would mean the likes of full power Hit, Tournament of Power Ultimate Gohan and 17, etc. would also scale. There's a lot to work through.
I expect this to be controversial, so let's please keep things civil as always.I'll put up the Agree, Disagree, and Neutral tally but let's be honest I'm gonna forget about it immediately.

I'm so gonna regret this aren't I?
